Chapter nine

Jason's POV

Piper looks really peaceful and cute when she's sleeping I thought as I looked at her peacefully sleeping with her head in my lap. The moment I though this I immediately pushed it out of my mind.

She only sees you as a friend and you need to accept that I told myself knowing I was right. That still didn't stop me from hoping that I was wrong that maybe she didn't see me as only a friend. I would find out later how she felt about me but right now I needed to keep an eye out and make sure no one came after us. Once I was 100% sure that she was asleep I decided to carefully look through my things to see if I had any food. I only looked through my stuff, not wanting to invade her privacy only to find that I had absolutely nothing. Not even a wrapper. Wanting to let her go through her own stuff I pulled out her IPod, which she agreed to share with me, and started scrolling through the songs. I scrolled down to my favorite song, put in the headphones and pressed the play button. Immediately, Forever and Always by Parachute started to play. I listened to this song over and over again while playing with her hair waiting until she woke up. About an hour later she started to stir and I thought that I had done something so I got real still but she woke up any way.

"Hey you're awake. You feeling any better?" I asked concerned.

"Yeah a little bit. I don't know what was wrong. I mean one minute I was fine and the next I was dizzy." She replied running a hand through her hair like she always did when she woke up. Then she sat up, took off her glasses and started rubbing her eyes. As much as I know we had to do it I hated the fact that she had to change her eye color. I was so used to seeing her with the green eyes that I loved, she just seemed so different with blue ones.

"You sure you're good? Because if you're not I can let you sleep some more." I told her even though I had almost fallen asleep a few minutes before she had woken up. I knew exactly this was but I didn't what to worry her with my troubles

"No it's your turn to sleep you look like you could use some." She said and she traced under my eyes with her thumb. The moment she touched my face my heart immediately started racing. Is this how she felt when I touch her lip to get a look at the cut? If so then I can see why she got tense.

"You look like you haven't slept in days." She said dropping her hand.

"Yeah I don't know why though." I lied. The reason I appeared like I hadn't slept in days was because I hadn't. I kept having there nightmares that would cause me to wake in the middle of the night and I wouldn't be able to fall back asleep until maybe 30 minutes before it was time to wake up. Then I would have to go through the day as if I was perfectly fine even though I was dying to sleep on the inside.

"Have you been getting enough sleep?" she asked looking me in the eyes. I turned and looked at the ground, knowing that if I wanted to have any chance of lying I wouldn't be able to look her in the eyes.

"Yeah plenty. Now I'll go to sleep if you promise to wake me up in one hour so that you can sleep some more." I said looking back up at her.

"Yeah I promise."

"Oh and before I try to sleep I was looking through my stuff trying to find something to eat and I didn't find anything, but I didn't go through your stuff so."

"I'll check while you're sleeping and I'll be sure to save some for when you wake up. Now relax and try to get some sleep." She said scooting over on the bench so that I could lay down. I laid with my head right beside her leg while my own legs hung off the end of the bench. I closed my eyes and immediately I felt calm for some reason. Then I felt her start to run her hands through my hair as she hummed the tune to Forever and Always, the song I was listening to earlier, and I couldn't help but picture us back in our room talking into the late hours. Every now and then when it was really late and we could sleep she would start humming that song and almost immediately I would fall asleep, and this time was no different. The moment I fell asleep I was dragged back into the same nightmare that had been keeping me up every night for the past week straight.
